An ecovator (in the Pearson Pinkham Dictionary) is a person or company that comes up with a wonderfully ecological innovation. (Ecological Innovator=Ecovator)
Goodwin Heart Pine Company specializes in river-recovered pine and cypress. This is wood that broke free from log rafts that were floated down Southern Rivers more than 100 years ago and sank to the bottom of the river. Their divers salvage the logs and their mill turns them into lumber for flooring, paneling and furniture.
While they have been doing this for years, I just read about them today in Cottages and Bungalows Magazine. (See page 26, August-September issue, 2009)
Please tell me about other "Ecovators" you know in relation to Cottages, Bungalows and Woodland Retreats by nominating them for my monthly Ecovator Award.
